Director Statement

“Gold Wells” challenges the rotten traditional beliefs about women in today’s Iranian society. Women in Iranian society are deprived of “The Right to Choose” in marriage. In the recent years, the fanatic religious beliefs in Iranian society has not found even a bit of flexibility. “Gold Wells” shows a small unit of society in southern Iran. However, “Honor Killing” and “Forces Marriage” continues growingly even in the big cities of Iran.
